Flap is working to take affected website interfaces offline after its site began redirecting visitors to an unauthorized page, prompting a warning against wallet activity.

The response includes Blockaid and other partners, founder @eth_cedric said. Flap is also seeking help from Vercel and Name.com, and said it plans further updates for users.

After detecting the redirection, Flap’s official account told visitors to stay away from the site and avoid wallet activity or transaction approvals.

The founder said the warning applied to people who connected a wallet or signed an approval on the redirected site shortly before the alert. He said connections made before the incident were unaffected.

Blockaid said it was investigating suspected wallet attacks involving Flap, Kintsu and StonkBrokers, a probe covered in an earlier EconoTimes report.

Flap said it would keep users informed as its response continues.
